Michigan State guard Kyle Ahrens had to be carted off in the first half of Sunday's Big Ten Tournament championship game against Michigan with an apparent left ankle injury.

X-rays on Ahrens' left foot didn't show a fracture, an MSU spokesperson said, according to the Detroit Free Press' Chris Solari.

While attempting to secure a rebound, Ahrens fell awkwardly on his ankle and avoided moving his leg for several minutes before medical staff helped him off the court.

Ahrens had averaged 4.8 points and 2.6 rebounds in 29 appearances prior to the conference title game.
